Decided to take a hike at the nature center today and came across a pond with a bunch of frogs in it. Comments/Critique welcome

Hi, Alex.





It could be included in school books as a good illustration to Depth of Field topic, IMO.

Nice photo of Mr. Frog. It would've been nice if there was just a tad more catch light in his left eye, but i suppose he wasn't in the mood to be posed.

[erno james]

make that his RIGHT eye.

Dont really have any critiques on the photo, Great shot!

[alex.krebiehl]

Thanks! Here's another one of him looking back over his shoulder at me.

also a great shot, but personally i prefer the first one with the solid green composition apose to the break up of blue and green in this one.

Fantastic picture Alex!


I'm looking back to my science textbook in Highschool as a cover. I agree with erno, a bity more of light in its right eye would have been nice, but hey, that's what post is for

Nice, but I prefer the first one. I'd rather have the gaze direction point to where there's more space in the frame; in the second shot, he looks constrained by the edge of the frame.
